Maldito, a barrel-aged red from the D.O. Valdeorras, is a masterpiece by Pablo Vidal. This wine, with its complexity and character, blends Mencía, Garnacha, and native varieties, offering an intense and elegant sensory experience.
Maldito is a wine that represents resilience and the Atlantic character, created by Pablo Vidal under the label 'Vinos con Personalidad'. This barrel-aged red, from the Denomination of Origin Valdeorras, challenges traditional norms of Galician wines, providing a complexity and structure comparable to the great wines of the world. It originates from vineyards situated on slopes of slate and schist and features an exceptional blend: 60% Mencía which adds freshness and a hint of red fruit, and 40% Garnacha from old vines, Sousón, Brancellao, and Caiño, which contribute depth, spices, and vibrant acidity, ensuring remarkable longevity.
The process of making Maldito is a testament to patience, starting with 24 months aging on fine lees in tank, giving it volume, followed by 9 months of refinement in medium-toasted French oak barrels. The result is a wine with a vibrant cherry red color, and a nose that seduces with notes of jams, sweet spices, and an unmistakable balsamic background. On the palate, it feels intense yet smooth, with polished tannins and an elegance that comes only with time and Vidal's mastery.
Maldito is ideal for collectors and for those who appreciate wines with history and soul. To fully enjoy this wine, it is recommended to serve it between 15-16°C in a large Burgundy glass and to decant it 20-30 minutes beforehand to unleash its aromatic complexity.
